Occurs when force is applied over a certain distance and motion is in the same direction as the force?

Work. The object doesn't have to be moving in the same direction as the force.If I'm pushing north and the object is moving northeast, then it has a componentof motion in the direction of my force, and I do work.


How much work are you doing if you push on a 40 N rock that won't move?

Work is defined as the product of (force) x (distance).If you push on something that won't move, then although you may break outin sweat, and possibly even become short of breath, the distance is zero, soby the strict definition of 'work' in Classical Mechanics, the quantity of work doneis zero.


When a force is exerted over a distance its what energy?

When a force is exerted over a distance, it is work energy. Work is defined as the process of moving an object by applying force. This work energy can result in the object gaining kinetic energy or potential energy.


What is applying force to an object and moving it a distance called?

Work. Work is defined as the product of the force applied to an object and the distance over which the force is applied. Work is typically measured in joules (J).


What happens when a pivot point of a lever changes?

When the pivot point of a lever changes, it can affect the mechanical advantage of the lever. Moving the pivot closer to the load decreases the force required to lift it but increases the distance over which the force must be applied. Conversely, moving the pivot closer to the effort force increases the force required to lift the load but decreases the distance over which the force must be applied.


Is it true that moving an object a shorter distance requires more work than moving an object a greater distance?

No, this statement is not accurate. The work done is determined by the force applied and the distance over which that force is applied, not just the distance alone. The amount of work done depends on both factors and is independent of the distance moved alone.
